Sixty-something retirees, Max and Paula Hartman have lived their lives without anything more serious than a traffic ticket or two. Max's beloved aunt Betsy, who has been suffering from Alzheimer's for the past year is unexpectedly found dead one morning after one of Max's visits the evening before. The cause: suspected euthanasia.When news of the suspicious death reaches anti-Semitic prosecuting attorney, Larry Cross. he mounts a crusade against euthanasia, to bolster his campaign to run for Hennepin County Attorney. And Max Hartman is a perfect target; he's Jewish in an environment of rising anti-Semitism, he isn't prominent or well-known, and he doesn't seem to have resources. Could a case be made for a possible inheritance as a motive to fund Hartman's recent retirement?Hartman is questioned, arrested and finally charged with first-degree murder. Cross builds a case using vague circumstantial evidence, innuendo and the media; social and otherwise. He believes that in the rising anti-Semitism of the Minneapolis/St. Paul area, it seems as if Hartman is doomed.Helpless behind bars, Hartman's spitfire of a wife, Paula, all ninety-eight pounds and five-feet of her becomes the powerful force that Larry Cross and his minions never saw coming. Along the way, she discovers many allies outside of the Jewish Community against the anti-Semitic Cross while many of her life-long Jewish friends abandon the Hartmans.But is this dynamic modern woman enough to get her husband free? Where do Max and Paula get their strength? Where did they come from and what events in their lives made them what they are?The answers lie deep in their past and examine the legacy their parents left them from the time of their birth during the WWII years in North Minneapolis and their childhood during the post-War years.
